Is this a quiet hair dryer?

It is much more quiet than the average hair dryer. I purchased and returned a few hair dryers before I found this one because they were all too loud. This one is quiet, lightweight, and the high heat setting is very hot.

I think so and it's one of the features I really like about the Conairs. I've found some other brands I've used to be so loud they were uncomfortable to use. I've found these to be relatively quiet though, no issues on the sound.

No, not a quiet dryer. It is just as loud as my other two full size dryers. Maybe even a bit louder than one of them.

This is a link to one of the reviews I read before purchasing the hair dryer: http://hair-dryers-review.toptenreviews.com/centrix-q-zone-quiet-review.html It says that it "bonds the moisture to the hair"...whatever that might mean! The dryer is a bit outsized but is so quiet that I don't mind the size. The hair dryer noise from the usual machines was very irritating and sometimes painful This one really is quiet.

Hi, On the box it states it is 2400 watts,it has 3 temperature settings, 2 fan speeds and a cool shot button. This is my second Elchim and I really like it because it is the only blow dryer that seems to prevent a lot of static. As for quiet, I would say it is about average; it's not noisy but it's not noise free if that helps. It's a great dryer and I highly recommend it.

Yes, it is very quiet. It has 3 fan speeds. I have it in a bedroom, so to make it even quieter I put a strip of heavy felt on the sill to cut down on the compressor noise.

In my tests, the average hair dryer was much louder than 80dBs on High: many were over 100dBs on high when measured 4 inches from the motor. This Centrix was the quietest one I tested, when on the Low setting (78.93 dBs), and the 3rd quietest when on High (88.77 dBs). But it was the weakest one of them all -- only 1500 watts. I tested two other models that were quieter on High, and they were both 1600 watts.

This is one of the quietest dryers on the market. I talk on the phone while using it.

No really quiet or loud.... If you want power it makes noise, but less than a vacuum cleaner !!!

I dont consider it loud at all and i also find i dry my "thick" hair on the low setting. I really like this dryer.

No. But it is a hair blower not a curling iron and is loud like most blowers. Hard to forget when the sound is do loud. But it does dry and style at the same time.

It's pretty quiet compared to other dryers. I mostly got it because of how light weight it is. And I'm sure that with a smaller motor, that helps with the sound.

I think you might have received a faulty one. Mine isn't too loud...I would say it is a little quieter than my hairdryer

I don't know... however, this is the fastest hair dryer I have ever used and it makes your hair shine... I used to be a hair dresser a long time ago and I can say it is not annoyingly loud and it is the best in it's field.

The housing on this dryer is fairly large so the sound dissipates better. On the "low" setting it is pretty quiet, but it does get louder as you increase the setting. This dryer is still much quieter than other travel dryers I've owned.

yes it is very quiet, especially compared with a standard compressor type dehumidifier. But initially it has a strong odor from the heating element- it was really strong for about 2 weeks- if it had been in a small room with me it would have been unacceptable. It goes away after a couple of weeks. So break it in in another room before you get intimate with it.

It's noisy about the same as most dryers. It's not one that advertises to be quiet.
